ADN's mission is to promote a better quality of life for people with physical disabilities by creating awareness and offering opportunities to get involved with athletic, recreational and educational activities nationwide.

The Athletes with Disabilities Hall of Fame honored seven honorees on October 9, at the MotorCity Casino & Hotel in Detroit, Michigan. Our honorees are role models for the next generation of young people with disabilities, and their awe-inspiring stories bring much-needed awareness to the general public. We celebrate the accomplishments of persons of all disabilities  from wheelchair rugby players to amputee skiers to visually-impaired swimmers  and each honoree must meet strict criteria for integrity and contributions to society.

Motocross Champions Crowned at 9th Annual Extremity Games

Rochester Hills, MI (June 6, 2014)  Celebrating its 9th year, Extremity Games joined together adaptive athletes on a national stage on May 24, 2014. Competing on what is arguably one of the toughest tracks in the Midwest, Baja Acres Motocross Park of Millington, Michigan hosted the event as part of their Memorial Day Weekend where champions were crowned in three categories: AMP  Lower Extremity, AMP - Upper Extremity and Para (seated).

Organized by Athletes with Disabilities Network, Extremity Games provides athletes living with amputations and/or spinal cord injuries a venue where they can compete peer-to-peer, limb-loss to limb-loss on an equal playing field.

Returning Extremity Games Champions Max Gomez from New Rochelle, New York, Drake Smeltz from Westfield, PA each went 1-1 in the Amp  Lower and Amp  Upper class. Jesse Gildea from Van Wert, Iowa rounded out the gold medalists in the Para class.

"Extremity Games is a great thing," said Max Gomez. "These guys don't get enough credit for the things they do. Riding with all your body parts is difficult as it is but to have missing ones and still be able to perform on a bike is incredible."

Extremity Games 10 - Main Event

May 27, 2014

Hello everyone - Thank you for your support of Extremity Games. We have been working to reach out to our sponsors and athletes about Extremity Games. As some of you have already heard, Extremity Games Main Event has been postponed this year. Extremity Games Motocross was this past weekend on May 24 and the Main Event will return in June 2015. We have been honored to host Extremity Games now for nine years. During this time, the Games were held in three states and hosted nearly 1,000 athletes from ten countries.

To continue our success of the Main Event, the Athletes with Disabilities Network (ADN) board of directors have decided to refocus the event on Extremity Games 10, which will take place in 2015. This will give us a great opportunity to garner our ability to make the 2015 Extremity Games a marquee event for our 10 year celebration.

Thank you again for your support of Extremity Games. Each of you and all of the athletes and sponsors have truly helped to show that There's No Replacement for the Competitive Spirit™.
